I was a latchkey kid growing up so I started cooking for myself very young. I remember trying different things out with my brother and sister. Some were disasters and some turned out not too bad! Anything with butter! I really like making soups that seem to warm your heart and soul. I also love making fresh breads at home and yummy breakfast's. I'm always looking for great breakfast recipes! I try to use fresh or frozen ingrediants, particularly carrots, onion and celery in everything. I barely ever use anything out of a can. A big Saturday morning breakfast where we all get together and feast!
